    The room and bathroom were clean enough, however we weren't given clean sheets daily. Walls were rather thin. Would have liked firmer pillows and mattress (just being picky)

    We loved the location, literally a 5 minute walk from Gare du Nord station. We were given the choice of whether we wanted a bath or shower (opted for a shower). Room had a plug in fan and a very nice and cold small fridge freezer which we kept our drinks in. The staff were friendly and approachable and they were able to keep our luggage on the last day after check in until we needed to return to the station. There is also a lift which is quite small so a few trips may be needed if you have lots of luggage. Windows kept sound out once shut. Close to so many eateries, MacDonald's, burger king and KFC plus lots of others, good for convenience

    This hotel was a great find—comfortable, quiet, and conveniently located near the Gare du Nord station, which made getting around easy. The reception staff were very kind and welcoming. We felt safe throughout our stay, especially with the main doors locked at night for added security. A solid, affordable base for touring Paris. Would definitely recommend!

    Great Location, Friendly Staff, Firm Beds
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Double Room

    Personal preference here, but the bed killed me a bit. It wasn't like a rock but it was very very firm. If you like a firm bed then you'll be really happy, but as someone who definitely likes really soft beds I woke up pretty sore. We also found that we struggled for toilet paper! Despite coming into our rooms and doing a clean, we weren't given anymore. I ended up buying a few rolls because finding toilet paper in public restrooms is often difficult, and I was glad because we used some for the room.

    The staff were incredibly friendly and very kind. As far as location goes, it really doesn't get better than this. Barely 100 metres to Gare du Nord means you can access anywhere in the city very quickly. There was a vending machine and coffee machine downstairs that I didn't use but looked good. The bathroom was a lot bigger than I was expecting too! The windows block out a good 90% of the noise - if you're a light sleeper like me and wake up at every bump in the night you'll probably do okay. There's a (small) lift so its accessible and the staff run a shuttle bus to the airport which is a bargain if you're travelling solo.

    Really handy for gare du Nord if you're arriving late, 3 minutes walk away. We had a family suite with 2 rooms and enough beds for 5. Everything was clean and the beds were comfortable. Soundproofing could be improved but otherwise no issues.

    While my stay was generally pleasant, there were a few downsides. The cleanliness could have been better—not terrible, but the corners, especially in the bathroom, were noticeably dirty. The stairwell, though beautiful with its spiral design, clearly hadn’t been vacuumed in a while. Another small inconvenience was the lack of a kettle and tea in the room. I didn’t check if this was supposed to be included, but it would have been nice to have, especially for a quick cup of tea in the evening. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience was still good, and the hotel has a lot of potential with just a bit more attention to detail!

    I had a great stay at this hotel! The location is perfect—just a 5-minute walk from Gare du Nord, which makes it very convenient for travelers. The staff was friendly and helpful, and I really appreciated the option to leave my luggage both before check-in and after check-out. My room was on the 5th floor, so I had a nice view from the window. There was also a small balcony, which was a nice touch. The building has an elevator, so getting to my room was easy. The room itself was small, but for a two-night stay, it was just right. It had everything I needed: a comfortable bed with extra pillows and blankets, a TV, and a private bathroom with hot water. Overall, a great choice for a short stay in Paris. I would definitely stay here again!

    The bed was a bit firm for our liking, but nothing against the hotel. Would be good to have kettle in the room to make hot drinks in the room, however, there’s a hot drink machine in reception.

    Very pleasant and charming building in a good location within Paris, With good public travel links. Room that we stayed in is Cosy, good heating in the room. Covers your basic needs for a stay in the city.

    Hotel is a budget style hotel within walking distance of the Gare du Nord. This is what I needed, and I felt perfectly safe walking to it as it is very close by. Check in was easy and my room was comfortable, clean and inexpensive. The bathroom was fine and shower good. I declined the breakfast as I had an early start the next morning. Proximity to the Gare du Nord means it is in a lively area with plenty of places to eat close by if you need to, but equally, there was no street noise coming to the room so I slept well.

    The hotel matched the description an suited our needs - although the rooms were very hot, so we had to open a window or two.

    The location was excellent, nestled between two main train stations and a very easy walk up to Monmartre. The hotel matched the description and was perfect for our needs. The staff were AMAZING and helped us when we had a sick child, speaking in both French and English.
